JAMES MCINERNY: Numerous independent studies. That’s the European standard. Europe <br />has much stricter standards in almost everything, food and drug purity, as well as cell towers. <br />That is the most commonly cited figure. However, I’m just standing on Hawaiian Shores. And I <br />don’t know if, you know, your tower applicant here could answer that question better about what <br />is their safety limit. That would be interesting to know. Hawaiian Shores came out 225 feet. <br />And I don’t know what their source was. <br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: Okay, so it’s commonly cited. But you didn’t really answer my question. Do <br />you have some citations that I could take a look at? <br /> <br />JAMES MCINERNY: I don’t. The internet is full of term. <br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: Okay, I’m there right now. Thank you. <br /> <br />ISHIBASHI: Commissioner Gonzales? <br /> <br />GONZALES: Mr. McInerny, how far do you live from the proposed site? <br /> <br />JAMES MCINERNY: I live behind a house that’s on the Manalo -. <br /> <br />NOMURA: Microphone, please. <br /> <br />JAMES MCINERNY: Sorry. My house abuts to another house which is on Manalo Street, <br />across from the cell tower. This is my interest because they’re in closer proximity to my <br />family’s dwelling. <br /> <br />GONZALES: Are you within the 400 yards, would you say? <br /> <br />JAMES MCINERNY: Yes. Oh, definitely, yes. I’m about 350 feet. <br /> <br />GONZALES: Thank you. <br /> <br />ISHIBASHI: Commissioner Henkel. <br /> <br />HENKEL: Mr. McInerny, you said Hawaiian Shores established a buffer of 225 feet and yet <br />there are, what, you said, 5 to 7 houses within the buffer they set? <br /> <br />JAMES MCINERNY: Yes, yes. <br /> <br />HENKEL: Okay, I just want to be clear. Thank you. <br /> <br />JAMES MCINERNY: Well, they notified the residents that there was this safety buffer, as you <br />call it, and that some houses fell within. Why they took it any further is beyond me. You know, <br />we all love our cell phones, myself included. You know, when I was a kid they talked about <br />Dick Tracey watches. You know, wow, we almost have them now. With these cell phones, <br />they’re almost that small. But there’s a price. As with everything in life, there’s a downside. <br />And residents who live in close proximity to these cell towers definitely will suffer for the <br /> <br /> 5 <br /> EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />
